90’s. With his soulful and compelling vocals, MICKEY has established
himself as one of Rock Music’s most recognizable stars.

joined the JEFFERSON STARSHIP as lead vocalist, after the departure of
Grace Slick and Marty Balin.

Backed by the power of MICKEY’S vocals, JEFFERSON STARSHIP immediately

new vocals, the group was renamed STARSHIP and continued to record an
amazing string of hits including “NO WAY OUT”, “WE
BUILT THIS CITY”, “SARA”, and an Oscar Nomination for
the #1 hit “NOTHING GONNA STOP US NOW" from the movie “Mannequin”.
Other top hits included “FIND YOUR WAY BACK”, “STRANGER”, “LAYING
IT ON THE LINE”, and “IT’S NOT OVER TILL IT’S
OVER” which became Major League Baseball’s theme in 1987.

STARSHIP’s video classics such as “WE BUILT THIS CITY” and “SARA” have
become staples on MTV and VH1. Material covered in STARSHIP’s live
performance ranges from MICKEY’S tenure with THE ELVIN BISHOP Band
and STARSHIP, as well as songs from his two solo albums.
